Arborstone

Deep in the Kurzick forest we delved.  It is dark and the people are pale and powdered. Mushrooms grow to the size of trees and deliver a pollen that slows us.  We burst through wardens, who appear like walking trees, and go to the Cathedral as we were bid.  The first thing we need is the Urn of Saint Viktor, and it lies amidst years of degraded ruins.  Countess Danika uses her magic to open the gate for me, and she seems very comfortable with us and Mhenlo.  Cynn must be going crazy.

We enter the Cathedral and exterminate it.  I grab the Urn, but as soon as I do the stones and pillars crumble to the floor, and the the archways cave in.  Mhenlo gets trapped outside and swears to meet us at the other end of the grounds, we must lead Danika through.

We take the urn and the girl through the crumbling stones.  They fall upon us from the ceilings so I decide its safest for us to travel the perimeter. 

We exit the side of the cathedral and are met by bushes that run with mouths, teeth, and sharp claws.  They mob us in large groups but trees burn and they are dealth with slowly. 

We reach the other end and the doors were magically sealed.  The pillars  falls revealing great stone warriors, and the largest a monstrouly large statue bearing down upon us with a great stone hammer. We are forced to spread out and concentrate our attacks to his cronies first, believing the best in our healers abilities to allow us to last long enough to face the Judge alone.

Danika uses her magic to open the far gates, and we leave with the Urn.  Waiting patiently for Mhenlo, we slowly begin to fear the worst.  Cynn starts to mope and be quick angered, snapping and sending ash through the air, but after what felt like a millenia, Mhenlo approaches.  He is a little worse for wear, but alive.  For a brief moment I saw true elation pass through Cynns eyes, but quickly it becomes rage as she begins to snap at him for making her wait so long. I will never understand her.  Atleast she fights like a champion.

We give Danika and her Kurzicks a very thankful and respectful goodbye.  With the Urn, it is time to get the fabled Spear of Archemorus.  Then we can take down Shiro.
